i'll just throw this out there--it doesn't apply directly but i've been renaming my .mts file to .m2ts so that they are easily viewable in Windows Media Player. All I do is rename the extension when I rename the file. I've noticed NO difference in editing and no difference in their appearance. Is this okay to do? I just figured I'd ask.

As for your post, kengai, if you're making them AVI's so that you can view them easier, you might try this.
